Our family's experience

It was a great experience. Brandywine was very clean and comfortable. My dad's apartment was newly renovated so it was beautiful and spacious. My dad was always clean and well taken care of. The staff was very attentive to his needs and amazing with him as well as myself and my family. We were all taken care of. I have no complaints. My mom did not want my dad in a nursing home so when the time came when she could not care for him at home anymore (my mom is 90) my husband and I took the tour and was very impressed. We then took my mom and she also was impressed. The transition was easy as the staff was very accommodating and welcoming. I do not have anything negative to say. We ( my immediate family that visited every day) actually miss the staff and some of the residents that we would interact with every day. ??

I took [Name Removed] to Sunrise of Paramus. They were very kind to[Name Removed]. They treated her to lunch.[Name Removed] showed us the model which she could have as her residence. She liked the room. She then walked around the facility and interacted with all the residences. She showed love with everyone. She had a lot of fun. [Name Removed] told me she had another family looking at the model. Then she showed [Name Removed] and I another room that was under construction. This room is also a studio and it would be ready in three weeks. [Name Removed] was not able to adjust to the pressure that this room might be taken if she didn’t react soon in case another family comes in and would want it. It was hard for her to think of leaving her home and making a decision. She explained it to me as walking out of one door and walking in another door which would be her new home.[Name Removed] is a retired RN and spoke to the nurse at Sunrise that she worked with patients and she knows Assistant living facility.
